The woke is nearly gone. 🤞The sun sets on humans globally. Penguins have needs too.

73 days. People are getting the idea. He should have gone to prison instead of the White House.

People everywhere rearranging their lives to shelter from the impending storms. From Russia to LA, positioning, rethinking personal finances. Rethinking choices based on needs and wants. Time of life too. Adjusting lives. Looking for shelter from the retribution storm.

Those closest to him, in the first row, the fart sniffers, look stunned. Rubio is in Brussels today.

True believers above getting what they worked and lied for. Surely you’ve seen the avalanche of red ink today. Just a snapshot of the moment. Where’s it moving? Correcting? Big thinkers on Twitter saying they got out, yet hedge fund managers pooped the bed. Screams of my 401k this morning leapt from early am social media pages. That earth was flat, indeed and the Dow fell off the edge.

It’s said today, the first day of our “Liberation,” that bananas are an item we are likely to create Trump Tariff shortages and Trump Tariff skyrocketing prices. He’s screwing up supply chains too. Expect allllllll kinds of troubles. Empty shelves. In addition, the Trump Tariff’s on an uninhabated island of penguins may prove to become poster children for his stupidity which is only eclipsed by the stubbornness in application of stupid ginormous tariffs.

Anyone else bothered about how the stripes on the flag are so big and turned vertically?

Not an economist, I’ve listened to numbers and blame and percentages till it’s understood, we will find out along with everyone how this will really work. One thing agreed… he doesn’t understand how any of this works.

Anyway, grok tells the truth on tariffs to wildlife in far away places, explaining a tweet mentioning the new burden on penguins tiny shoulders.

- The tweet references tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump on the Heard and McDonald Islands, an uninhabited Australian territory in the sub-Antarctic Indian Ocean, as announced on April 2, 2025.

- These islands are home to penguins, seals, and other wildlife, but have no human population, making the tariff decision unusual.

- The tariffs on the Heard and McDonald Islands are part of a broader set of reciprocal tariffs targeting various countries and territories, including Australian territories like Christmas and Cocos Keeling Islands, at a rate of 10%.

- Trump did not impose new tariffs on Russia in this executive order, despite earlier threats on March 30, 2025, to impose 25% to 50% tariffs on buyers of Russian oil if Moscow blocked Ukraine peace efforts.

- The exclusion of Russia from the latest tariffs, while targeting uninhabited islands, has sparked confusion and criticism, as noted in reports from Rolling Stone and Reuters.

Funny, it’s we that are the confused ones? Calling the tariff on wildlife without pockets to carry a wallet “unusual”. Grok is such a kidder.

Not an MD. Not an economist either. Not our president working on behalf of our lives and needs, either. So who is he? A treasons felon that is protected by our Supreme Court and who are they? Found to be corrupt in a circle thing turning out to be a circular firing squad with any luck. Someone’s god must be on our side.

Then, also this below seems soothing. Rand Paul, the Turtle, the terminally Concerned senator and Lisa Murkowski all said, nah uh. Thumbs down on Trump, just like McCain. How will that go? Waiting on the him as always. One eye open on him all the damned time.

The lovey lady, a ballerina pictured above is leaving, has left Russia for the Netherlands. As every other human is, her life has been disrupted. A fish in a new pond is still a fish out of their own water. We have all been taken, much as the criminals were, to a prison of some kind. Yes, I’m being dramatic again. Positively Boroque with drama. It’s a drama Maga clowns insisted upon with flags and screaming in our faces with no masks during covid… Demanded violence on Jan 6 then threw hissy fits when it was said people died that day. Hissy effing fits demanding that no one died. The day was tourism. Who really let them get away with this? We did not. IT was they, themselves with their leader. They stole it all. It’s all on their shoulders tiny or broad. I’m all in on blame for the moment.

It’s all brought us to the moment where the world has no choice but to shift and change. Change its tune. Indeed we will harmonize in some other way. The tune less happy, the tone lowered again. More warnings coming, be vigilant and speak your mind. Protest. Ask around. What are you doing to be heard? Listen to Corey Booker for a time, become inspired.

Rubio is in Brussels, being humiliated again. Talking about the terrible tariffs and how EU has to put some vig in the pig or hasta la vista NATO,… baybeeeeeee…

Elon is getting the cold shoulder. Trump said he’s leaving soon. Fact - his status as special something gives him 130 days and he must go or get hired which means formal background checks. Even Fox is sending signals with facial cues and oddly bookish glasses. A human or nearly human 🤔

Things will shift. We will adjust. Protest. Get him over with. Eff those penguins, right?

And lastly, these old books found at Goodwill and thrift shops, really house treasures from the past. I offer a recipe from another day to quell the ills of the moment.

Thanks for being here. I wouldn’t be here without you. PS the day counter needed adjusting. Fixed.
